Kentucky Mission Trip Recap
Some of our Senior High Students took a trip down south to Clay County, KY; one of the poorest counties in the US today.
Each morning we drove deep into the hollers of Manchester and built 2 decks, for some nice ladies.
Every afternoon was a bit different, either serving at a homeless shelter, or running VBS, it was a GO! GO! GO! Kind of trip.
Early every morning we did our devos and then came back together after dinner and discussed what we had read and learned.
Tough, Challenging, Impactful, Eye-opening, Rewarding, and Awesome are all words I would use to describe our trip!
Shoutout to LeaderTreks for all they did for us, and the lessons we were taught.
